This is a loosely structured evening of chat, short demos, and questions. This is open to anyone from complete novices who’ve never used it and aren’t even really sure what it does to Ace’s power users. You can just hang out and watch or ask questions. Bring in a project for feedback and troubleshooting.

We will explore a variety of techniques with UV resin, including:
- Dying with pigments
- Floating objects
- Using silicone molds
- Using open and closed bezels
This workshop will focus on efficient methods of creation. It is a good idea to have a few ideas ahead of time of what you want to make. We will have a large selection of colors, mica pigments, foils, flowers, and more to choose from. Folks wanting to work with photos should bring prints to work with.
Basic findings were also provided, with additional findings available for purchase. Each person will create between 2 to 6 pieces. All materials are included but feel free to bring your own bits of inspiration.
